Annoy a recruiter.  Hmm.  Who will that inconvenience?

I've been called by recruiters many a time.  Invariably they have me take
time off to go on an "interview" at their office, where I am asked
superficial questions that don't really mean anything.  I then get a weekly
call asking if I am interested in a job that has little or nothing to do
with my skills, qualifications or experiences.  Finally I just stop taking
their calls and hope they go away.

Here's a thought...instead of recruiter horror stories, does anyone have a
*success* story?  Has anyone actually gotten a job via a recruiter?
